Special Thanks!

I am so thankful that our staff got to attend the National Lutheran Educators Association Convocation!  During those days in Michigan last week, it was wonderful to worship, learn, and fellowship with Lutheran teachers from around the world.

Already this week, I have been able to share some new resources with our class.  I got a new book, "Icky Sticky, Hairy Scary Bible Stories", which had poems about the 10 Plagues.  The 4th graders are excited to hear more poems from this book throughout the year.  I also attended a session where I learned how to use some of our Sketchnoting techniques to create visual faith tools.

I am especially thankful to our PALS leadership and parental support!  Your fundraising efforts made this trip possible.  I was truly blessed to participate and grow as a Lutheran teacher!  I hope that in three years, our staff will be able to attend again.

Here we are enjoying the photo booth from Lutheran Hour Ministries.  They have some great resources to help our students support mission work around the world.
